You Can Sleep While I Dream Lyrics - Bon Jovi

1 You're boy sits down to write a song 'cause he thinks he's got something to say

2 Innocence thinks it can change the world but the world keeps getting in the way

3 It's a small list for the optimist who believes that he can fly

4 In a long line full of pessimists to stop him every time he tries

5 Some people see things as they are and ask,"why?"

6 I dream things that never were, I take my shot and say, "why not?"

7 (Hey, hey, hey) This one's for the dreamers

8 (Hey, hey, hey) Doubting disbelievers

9 Get out of my way

10 I bend but I aint' breaking

11 Scared but I ain't shaking

12 Baby, you can sleep while I dream

13 Convicted by convictions, they were carving out your cross

14 They came to take your measurements just to show you who's the boss

15 Until I reach that promised land I won't stop

16 When I get there I'll shake your hand so meet me on that mountaintop

17 (Hey, hey, hey) This one's for the dreamers

18 (Hey, hey, hey) Doubting disbelievers

19 Get out of my way

20 I bend but I aint' breaking

21 Scared but I ain't shaking

22 Baby, you can sleep while I dream

23 (Hey, hey, hey) This one's for the breathing

24 (Hey, hey, hey) Forgotten and the bleeding

25 I may whisper but I'm screaming

26 I got angels, I got demons

27 Baby, you can sleep while I dream

28 I'm not suggesting that you fly with me (Yeah, yeah)

29 Well here's a dose of some reality (Yeah, yeah)

30 You're swinging at a change-up, boy you better shape up, here comes the wrecking ball

31 Good morning, here's your wake-up call

32 (Hey, hey, hey) I feel the change a comin'

33 (Hey, hey, hey) See that train a comin'

34 (Hey, hey, hey) This one's for the dreamers

35 (Hey, hey, hey) Doubting disbelievers

36 Get out of my way

37 I bend but I ain't breaking

38 I'm scared but I ain't shaking

39 Baby, you can sleep while I dream

40 (Hey, hey, hey) This one's for the breathing

41 (Hey, hey, hey) The dying and the bleeding

42 Get out of my way

43 I may whisper but I'm screaming

44 I got angels, I got demons

45 Baby, you can sleep while I dream, when I dream… and I dream… I dream…

46 (Hey, hey, hey) I can feel the change a come

47 (Hey, hey, hey) I see that train a coming

48 Can you see it?
